Let's start with the first package. It's not a lot, but one thing that might save my nails :P The Trind Perfect System. I've been wanting this for a while now, but it's kinda pricey. Now I finally had the chance to get it, so I did. Trind is a Dutch brand, but is available worldwide. I could only find the online shop for America and Canada. Obviously a review will be up within a month :)

I also bought a Diamond Cosmetics nail polish. Diamond Cosmetics has an American online shop as well and they polishes $ 2,50 a bottle. This is the color Gold Foil.

This second package has some more products. My 3rd Konad plate (m60). I wanted this one because I kinda like 3 of the images :P Four Color Club polishes; Love 'Em/Leave 'Em,Incognito,Magic Attractionand Sex Symbol. Those last 2 look very similar, but Magic Attraction is a colorful glitter. Sex Symbol reminds me of O.P.I.'s Crown Me Already. O.P.I.'s Spark de Triomphe could be the gold version of that :)
I also got Golden Rose Scale Effect polish in #9, a flakie. I wanted to get more, but almost all of them were sold out. Usually I still order when a polish is sold out, but the owners of the site are moving, so they stated at the homepage to not order sold out products. So I'll just wait till they're done moving :P This is my first flakie by the way :D
Last but noy least my first Zoya nail polish! I didn't know what Zoya polish to get, because they're quite expensive. I ended up with Dana. I own so many pink polishes and I still don't know if this was a good thing to do :P

Who can spot the purple in this nail polish? Because I don't! Maybe I got a wrong bottle...? :P Wrong bottle or not; I like this color! It looks kind of brownish I guess. I'm wearing it on my toes now and it looks different again. More like a dark grey... This bottle is just wrong! xD

Today I've got the polish Dirty Berry for you! Like I've told in my previous post; I bought 3 new Catrice polishes and this is the second one I'm showing you. Out of the 3 this is probably my least favorite. I don't really know why, because it seems like a color I would wear. Even more than Forget Me Not.

I don't know in which countries you can buy Catrice. I believe it's a German brand, so they sell it there of course. I think it's possible they sell it in Belgium too, but for other countries I honestly don't know. So I'm sorry I'm gonna drive you crazy with Catrice swatches someday xD

Yesterday at work (I work in a drugstore) I bought 3 new nail polishes! Like I've said before; You can find the most boring nail polish stash in my bedroom, so I think adding these 3 were great to make it less boring :P I'll show you the first one today and the other 2 will follow in the upcoming days :)

Purple was never really my favorite nail polish color, but I have to say; I kinda digg this one! Oh, and on the first 3 pictures it looks like I have some tip wear, but this seems to happen to me when I apply my polish at night and wake up the next day.

I don't know for how long crackle polishes have been IN, but I do know that I wanted to own one when I heard of crackle nail polish a few months ago. In Dutch online shops they were always sold out and in the only drugstore in the Netherlands the whole Essence shelf was almost empty! But finally I got one! When I came home I realized I should've gotten the black one too, it was even there, since all the make-up was 50% off.

On my thumb the crackle didn't really show up that well, as you can see in this last picture. Kinda weird, since my nail polish wasn't really thick there and I only put a thin layer of the crackle over it.

This color seems very similar to Color Club's Pardon My French, but it isn't. The only difference between them is that this one is more nude and PMF is pink. This is not a nude color for me and I don't know if it would be if you have lighter skin. Because I have no idea what that would look like :P

I find that the color sometimes slightly changes in different lighting. The first picture shows most how it will look like in real life. And look at the picture below; I'm used to Catrice polishes who do that... What a fail :P

Yesterday I came across Laura's blog. She has a really fun contest going on; Create a franken inspired by a movie or TV show. I immediately had something in mind and tried to do something. I liked creating something, but I didn't really like the way it turned out. It's a nice color, but nothing special. I'd like to share the name of it with you, but then you would know from what movie I'm trying to create something :P

You see this color? See how silvery it is? It's beautiful! Another silver color I think is beautiful, but have never seen in real life, is China Glaze's Millennium. The difference between these 2 is that Color Club has glitter in it as well. So it's kind of a pain to get this off.

The picture above shows some kind of purple undertone or something... I have no idea where that comes from. The only color you'll find in the bottle is silver xD You'll need about 2, 3 coats to get this opaque.

First I wanted to thank you for the two followers I got the past few days with GFC! It may not be a lot, but at least there are 2 people who want to see/read my posts even though I don't know how to take pictures :P So thank you for that! And also a thank you for those who leave comments. It's so nice and makes me want to continue with this whole thing. Talking about comments; I have another comment section. I don't know yet, but I think with this one I can reply to comments and that's something that I find really important!

Another thing I wanted to share; my pictures. In the same week I started this blog I got myself a new camera! I once started a blog before, but the camera was blegh! 16 megapixels says nothing! :P It didn't even had an optical zoom xD But... I still don't really know how to hold my hand and nail polish when I take a picture and my pinky finger has it's own life... So I kinda need to figure out how to take good pictures. Until that time you have to do it with my awkwardness xD

You might know already I OWN the most boring nail polish stash in the entire world. As soon as I can I will buy new polishes and image plates (dying to get Bundle Monster plates) and all that jazz and hopefully I can entertain the both of us :P

Today a Color Club swatch. At the moment I only own 3 - I should be ashamed - Color Club polishes. I do have a few more on my wishlist, but I have to edit my wishlist. I think I want way more CC polishes :P

OMG. see this color! I love it! It's a nice shade of pale pink and of course different than my other pale pinks. I should've compared this polish to China Glaze's Something Sweet! I can tell you, they don't look a like. Something Sweet has a purple kind of undertone, while Pardon My French really is pink, going to white.

The application was kind of annoying... I would get off the access, but then almost all the polish got off the brush so I painted basically nothing on my nails... When me and the brush finally got along I still needed 4 coats to get it opaque! Plus, all 4 coats were streaky and got smooth after a topcoat.

I remember wanting to say more, but I seriously don't remember what I wanted to say... So let me just end with that I like this last picture because of the color. See what a true pink it is without crazy undertones?

Today a great fail! :P My room is a mess, always have been and always will be. I clean it sometimes and I promise myself to keep it that way, but 2 days later it's a mess again. Now I saw Tigger laying on the floor and it has been there for a long time and I was like; You are easy to create on my nails! Well, if you don't have the right tools, it's never easy and you will see xD

Okay, maybe it's not that great to see... But that doesn't matter. It looks ugly anyway :P Instead of Tiggers face it looks like an angry monkey who got a banana smashed in it's face or something. The other nails were simple and actually kinda cute. Just an orange nail polish and Konad image plate M57.

I know it's boring, but again I have a swatch for you today. BUT, I do have the need to explain some things to you :P Why am I so boring with my posts? Well, when I started out, just 2 weeks ago, I actually found out that I own the most boring nail polish stash in the world! And I have never really done nail art! I already knew I wanted to buy nail art stuff and all, but the end of the month (read fresh new salary) just seems so far away! So to the few readers that I have; I hope you can be patient :P

But now onto the swatch! As you can see (when you scroll to the 3rd picture) this is a very, very deep pink. Almost going to red. I wouldn't call it a hot pink though... I would call it - let me think - Highlight Red? No. Just no. But the name fail doesn't take away the prettiness off this color. I'll show you a pic with 1, 2 and 3 coats of this polish.

Today just a picture of my nails with a little bit of Konad (plate m57)! I just painted my nails black and applied a matte topcoat over that. Then I went with the black nailpolish over the image that I wanted and stamped it on my nails. I love it so much! You could do it with another color too of course, but I think with just black it looks the nicest. I can't wait until it's the time of the year where I like to wear darker colors on my nails :)

Today another China Glaze swatch with comparisons. This is China Glaze's High Hopes, again from the Up & Away collection and I have to say; I can not describe this color! Don't you just have that sometimes that maybe your eyes just can't adjust to some colors?
